Bomani Jones is joined by Jason Goff for the second episode of a historical retrospective series looking back at Colin Kaepernick, a decade after his initial protest. In this episode, Bo and Jason focus the conversation on the pivotal year of 2016 and how the sports community and sports media were caught off guard by the live TV moment. They reflect on where they were when the story broke and trace the gradual building of social justice discussions around police violence leading up to Kaepernick's protest.

The duo breaks down the initial weeks of the protest, the quote that defined his stance, and his eventual transition from sitting to kneeling. They relive the media's reaction to his protest, including the public's defense of their right to remain ambivalent. Ultimately, Bo and Jason evaluate Kaepernick's standing as a starting-caliber signal-caller who won in the playoffs, the reality of league collusion, and the lasting legacy of a quarterback who forced a national conversation
